Love the set up! Some killer shots in here, but the lighting could be improved. Look into getting a fluorescent lamp from Amazon and that'll give your shots a cleaner feel and take away some of the graininess.
Posing is generally pretty good, but shots like the Superkick could be made a bit more dynamic by having Michaels' arms in the air and string would really help out in aerial shots. Framing could also be improved in the last pic as there's a bit too much space above Hebner and Michaels and Michaels feet are partially cut off.
Keep up the good work!

Hey man thanks heaps for the advice. I'd love to know more about the lighting, something I've not got a clue yet. What do you use,what's it called? My setup is basically on my pool table in the garage and has basic ceiling lighting. The hebner michaels thing is kinda by design as I only have the Jakks hebner which seems to be on shamrocks body haha. The superkick one is inspired by this shot, so I did go arms down, trying to match it. Couldn't get the flailing hair tho.  Definitely used string too, but I'm really struggling with it. I've seen people use tripods so I bought one, but what to put on it stumped me. I've seen people use rulers so I got a long ruler and when I tie figs to it it tips the tripod. I tried fishing weights on the other end but still not much luck. Any suggestions? Also I forgot another pic where I actually got the string going with some moderate success.  Thanks so much for the thoughts. I really appreciate it, I'm obviously just getting into this, but it's a lot of fun and I'd love to have some people to bounce ideas off and see theirs too. |

Looks good. I really like the entrance set and ring skirt. And I think Jakks did better on the Paul Bearer head than Mattel.

Jakks couldn't do skinny or short at all. Or tubby I guess haha. Ring skirts from naparo01And the set is from a guy called Karl Steele you can find on Facebook or eBay. Love being able to change my gear, even if it takes ages! |
